Dave,

HamSatDroid is a fantastic program. I can't wait for the next version and will 
be more than happy to pay for this app.  Do you have a target date for the new 
version?

Take a look at hamsatdroid:

https://sites.google.com/site/hamsatdroid/

We've got some major improvements coming up for tablets.

Sorry to say that it will be a paid app with funds going to the amsat uk
satellite building fund. Which has contributed to many of the projects
worldwide.

The current free version can be found here:
